Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Bath and North East Somerset Council, which has initiated a tender titled "PSTN Lines" for telecommunications equipment and supplies, with a total value of £72,000. The procurement method used was a direct award, and the procurement stage is now at the award phase, having been completed on 25th July 2019. The contract period runs from 26th July 2019 to 25th July 2021, with delivery addresses located in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The tender period ended on 24th July 2019.

This contract presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in telecommunications services. Companies focused on providing PSTN line services, telecommunications infrastructure, or related consultancy could particularly benefit from this market, as they may find the direct award process less competitive than broader tendering methods. Businesses looking to expand in the telecommunications sector in the South West region should consider this success as a potential benchmark for future contracts.
